Answer #1

We have mass of the wire,

Length of the wire,

So,the linear mass density of the wire,

Also the tension in the wire,

So,the velocity of the wave through the wire,

So,the velocity of the wave through the wire,

Given ,the wavelength of the wave,

So,We have the velocity of the wave,

So,the frequency of the wave,

So,the frequency of the wave,
